Massive delays with the trains, up to 50 minutes in some parts. Some people just going to the nearest bar to watch it

I’ve been on this for quite some time. I’d rather have a Miocheck type which Caminiti does than a bloke who we will pay a fortune to forever kick points & out on the fulls from fairly good positions. Honestly, he is almost 24. Has he ever had a strong game against a top side? 3 plus goals etc. W...

I don't buy the assertion that St Kilda's kicking for goal is historically among the worst in the comp Acc: Accuracy = (Goals / shots at goal) 2024 - 15th - 41.6% acc (league avg 49.3%) 2023 - 10th - 47.8% acc (league avg 48.0%) 2022 - 10th - 48.1% acc (league avg 48.8%) 2021 - 10th - 46.9% acc (le...

Don’t mind this selection. Our first 3 picks went 1,2 & 3 for the agility test at the draft combine. No doubt we want players who are elusive with great lateral movement. Hastie looks a useful type

Exactly how I see it Vortex. Massive year & he is more than capable with a great group of coaches. I have no doubt Ross will be drilling into him to give more defensively as well as having extra clubs in the kit back so to speak than just a high mark from the side or from behind.

Out of all of the key forwards of the last 15 years Ben & Max are the only two players I can find who average less than a tackle per game. Ben is paltry at 0.6 per game, Max goes at 0.9 per game with his best season being his first year with shorter quarters owing to Covid. Yes, his job is to ma...

Agreed on the sentiment we’ll drop out of the 8 next season. We need to build a side that can consistently play off at pointy end. The sides playing off in the preliminary finals have midfield stars & all have top end draft picks in their midfield. We are paying the price for horrible recruiting...

Great effort & result!

If we’re lucky to finish 6th I believe Marvel is out of action due to a mini golf set up of some description.

We’d be at the G

Herald Sun - so don't even click - but it has to be Owens. Has there ever been a 2nd round draft pick that is in the running for the NAB Rising Star? I know there has been at least a couple of winners from later draft picks. Adam Goodes won it from a pick 43. Hannebery also won from pick 30 in the ...

Best post IMO from Beno88 I’ve read in ages. What is this fascination with bringing in Dean Kent style spuds. I’m not sure about Cordy but he cost us nothing but coin & fills a need. Outside of that, we may have asked the question of Bowes but he likely would have said get stuffed, i want to pla...

This narrative that we beat Geelong during the season meaning we aren’t far away is laughable. We also flogged Richmond by 15 goals the season they started their 3 flags in 4 years run. How did we perform over the following seasons? We are seduced by the occasional good performance at Marvel Stadium...

Unfortunately I feel Ugle-Hagen should be $1.01 for the nomination this week

It’s the midfield that will dictate the result. Unfortunately at the moment we are relying on King & Higgins to kick the bulk of our score. If we don’t find more avenues to goal, 8-11 goals will be our end result. Our midfielders just aren’t dangerous enough. None of them are good kicks with the...

No doubt the Hannebery deal has been a massive fail & sums up the Einstein’s at St.Kilda. I feel the more late indictment is our ability to give up or lose players to premiership contenders for virtually nothing on a yearly basis. Currently Hickey & McCartin both are at Sydney. Stanley for p...

Nick Coffield only 2 seasons ago finished in our top 5 in the b&f. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/steele-wins-saints-best-and-fairest-in-a-landslide-20201011-p5640w.html We played finals for the first time in 10 years. Nick Coffield was 21 when he produced this result. Due to injuries and a...

I wish just one day perhaps in a couple of finals, we’d get a run from the umpires like the dogs. Last year at the Gabba I believe 7 of their 10 goals against us came from a free kick. It was funny that today it was Essendon though Ask Doggies supporters about the 09 prelim final! It’s amusing that...

Oh god no. There is a reason why clubs are trying to move these types on.

Comparing Darling to Josh Battle is akin to the comparison of a Holden to a Datsun 121. After 2 years in the system Darling had kicked 77 career goals before the age of 21. He was an extremely good player from a young age and still remains that way. Apart from being a similar height, Battle isn’t el...

Remember when we bought in Michael Gardiner admittedly on a lot less Kanga. He’s played 3 games in 2006 at West Coast. His first year with us he didn’t play a game before 9 in 2008. I cannot recall that far back, I’d imagine he didn’t have anyone supporting or believing at 30 he’d be of any use. In ...

I remember the Alessio incident when he had 100kgs of Stafford on top of his ankle.

It was Greg Stafford who Bakes was rubbed out for 2 weeks for attempting to strike. Laughable

I believe Mark Arceri may have played at Vic Park the day Nicky & Gilbert ran riot

I thought we let Parker go to early as well but with a tight salary cap and possible lack of opportunities I understand. Those that bag out Kent need to watch the blocking he does to allow King space from Andrews on Friday night. His big backside deliberately was placed in front of Andrews subtly a ...

Yes it does. Lack of fitness will see an increase with injuries & errors under duress. Players as the game increases use the ball with less clarity, almost like you’ve been on the beers. I know this first hand with my sport cricket, I’m the king of the 25 each week with a brain fade dismissal al...
